...I had to share some of these..... "perms" ...

you see...Kim designed a new class..... a fabulous 'do you remember ' class.... which showcases some of those long and forgotten photos.....and I think the real 'shining star' to come from this class.....is the stunning 8o's perm.(Read what Kim has to say...here)It seems we all had one.... and we have shared many a laugh this week as we have shared them among ourselves.....but they are too good to keep to ourselves.... so check these out...

I realise this first one is a little hard to see... but it was the perm with the short back and sides.... (I love the shoulder pad look....with the nice belt and tucked in and pleated shorts...Mmmm mmm.)What about this nice 'Kath Day Knight' style perm.... and that gorgeous dress.... with the button earings....woo hoo....and In alookling very handsome in his pink shirt.....This one actually looks ok.... this is Jenny (Hi Jen...waves) and I at work ...this dear old lady was 103 ....and I still remember her name....Well.....thats the extent of my perms.....I never had many...I always wanted them...but mny hair was so fine...that they would drop out very quickly.... permed one day....gone the next.I even recall at one perm that all the bottom row of rollers dropped of into the basin with my hair still wound in them....the solution was too strong for my fine hair.... after that the only hairdresser I would allow to touch my hair was my cousin Kerry (Hi Kerry....waves to you too) ....Kerry knew exactly what my hair could handle..... and I had some very cool cuts and colours in the years after that.....

Anyway.....enough of my perm stories....Id love to see any that you have to share....so add a link if you upload any....

Well....this is my last blog post before I leave.....so have a great weekend...and Ill be back after the retreat.....woohoo!!
